problem #1

Aug 242006

Freelander 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 59,040 miles
: the contact stated while driving 20 mph down the street, the engine stalled and operated at a reduced speed without warning. The accelerator was firmly depressed and a smell of gasoline filled the vehicle, yet the vehicle continued to operate at a reduced speed. The vehicle was coasted to the side of the road. It was towed to the dealer who determined the fuel line clips fractured resulting in fuel rail leakage. The fractured fuel rail and clips were replaced which stopped the fuel leakage. The manufacturer was alerted. Updated 9/20/2006 - the consumer indicated that the manufacturer did not consider this a safety hazard because the vehicle was out of warranty.
